 I've read a little in magazines about ASICs. Since I'm only involved in
software engineering at work, it's sometimes hard for me to tell the 
limitations of a certain technique by reading summaries etc.

 So, what can be done with ASICs?

 Is it possible to create more than just plain Y=f(X) logic with
ASICs? Plain logic would probably be enough for doing a simple
MMU or anything similar, but can something that involves (for instance) 
counters be implemented? Would it be possible to design a circuit that 
creates (video) hsync and vsync from a clock input with one single ASIC?

 Are there other techniques that provide affordable single-chip custom 
design for the man on the street?

 Thanks in advance,
